Objective:
I am a young (25 year-old) evangelical who believes
in the infallible word of God. I am a recent graduate
of Princeton Theological Seminary in the Masters of
Divinity program (which is not known for being an
evangelical seminary, but which many evangelicals
attend because it is the most affordable seminary in
the nation!). I also graduated with honors from the
University of California in Santa Cruz with a
Bachelors of Arts in Philosophy. Throughout my MA
and BA programs I volunteered with local youth
groups, organized local trips, led Sunday youth
gatherings with bible studies, preaching, and
worship on guitar. I have a strong grasp on problem
solving and interpersonal skills. I work with
precision and clarity. I work great as a leader, and
as a team member. I have extensive ministry
experience with adults, college students, high-
school, and junior high students. I worked at two
solid churches as an intern for my M.Div. degree.
Those involved preaching, teaching bible classes,
and leading missions-trips. I have also worked as a
tutor for graduate students at Princeton Seminary,
and as a teacher’s assistant for an introductory
logic course at UC Santa Cruz. More importantly, I
love my Lord, and am profoundly thankful for this
gracious gift of life. I also like reading academic
philosophy of religion, theology, poetry, fantasy,
and rock-climbing, working with my hands, and
bicycling.
Experience:
From 10/12 to present I am a security guard for
Bayside Patrol and Investigative Services. This is a
low-risk security guard assignment which allows
me plenty of time to pray, and some time to read
(but no sleeping allowed!).
From 6/12 to present, I am a pastoral intern as
Saratoga Presbyterian Church. So far I helped lead a
short-term missions trip to Guatemala, started a
Sunday youth program for Jr high students, and
preached to both services (traditional and
contemporary) two times each. I also was in charge
of leading worship and organizing a renewal-of-
faith weekend we held at our church. I currently
lead youth and young adult programs, organize
retreats and trips, lead worship when needed, and
generally help wherever I am able.
During the academic year of 2011-2012 I was an
intern for the Young Life ministry at Rutgers
University in New Brunswick, NJ. This involved
organizing outreach trips, training leaders, going to
Christian camps, leading worship, and leading a
men’s disciple group. I did extensive outreach,
making lasting connections with about 20 non-
churched students.
During the summer of 2011, I was a full-time intern
at Westerly Road Church in Princeton, NJ as the
youth intern. I led adult Sunday school classes,
youth gatherings, local trips, men’s bible studies,
and co-led a trip to Haiti.
From September of 2010 to December of 2010, I
worked for Princeton Theological Seminary’s writing
center, offering help in writing analytic essays on
topics in history, philosophy, and theology. It was
humbling to offer advice and help to such a range
of great minds, especially the powerfully intelligent
and spiritually devout foreign students who needed
help with the tricky parts English grammar.
In addition to these, I have worked as a teacher’s
assistant for an introductory logic course at UC
Santa Cruz for three different classes. I was a
teacher’s assistant once during the spring quarter
from January 2009 to March 2009 and twice during
the summer quarter from June 2009 to August
2009. Being a teacher’s assistant involves leading
discussion sections students, holding office hours
in order to work with students in need of extra
instruction and working with the professor and the
other teacher’s assistants to grade midterms and
finals. Most rewarding was that face that I was able
to encourage some students who happened to be
Christians whose faith was beginning to falter.
I have worked at three different summer camps
across the United States as a counselor for middle
school to high school aged campers. I was
entrusted with keeping a cabin of young men safe
during adventure activities (high ropes course,
motorcycle-riding, riffle-shooting, etc.). I was also
entrusted with teaching and leading in front of a
large crowd.
These positions were held at the following summer
camps.
Frontier Ranch, In Scotts Valley, California from June
to September in 2004.
Good Tidings Bible Camp, In Cornwalleville, New
York from May to August in 2005
Mount Hermon, In Scotts Valley, California from
June to September in 2007
I have also worked as a security officer for
Enterprise Protective services. I was entrusted with
guarding several different banks. I had this job from
March of 2009 to July of 2009.
Education:
Masters of Divinity from Princeton Theological
Seminary (10/2012).
BA in Philosophy from UC Santa Cruz (11/2008).
Skills:
I've played the guitar for ten years, and I'm a big fan of
most out-doors activities, especially rock-clmibing
and biking.
